Ortega's

If you happen to be in downtown New Milford, just off Route 67 (Bridge Street) is a little place called Deli Ortega's. If you are not looking for it, it is easy to miss. It's at a traffic light, so that makes it a little more easy to see... and you should certainly be looking for it. I am not sure what the hours are but they are always open at lunch time. So if you want some fresh, made-to-order food then this is the place. The tortillas are hand-pressed right before cooking. The ingredients are always good. I suggest trying the quesadillas; they are not like what you get at a Tex-Mex place. The torta sandwiches are ample and filling. My only problem is the drink selection. It's all Jarritos and Snapple stuff. They used to have Coca-Cola but on my last trip in (yesterday!) I did not see anything. The green salsa is supreme and I actually get cravings for it... perhaps you will too. more
